Since 2000, there have been more and more private educational institutions being developing in Cambodia. Alongside with this, the government of Cambodia supports the development of private universities in order to build higher education in Cambodia with public universities. Needless to say, the number of students who enroll in private universities is increasing rapidly from year to year. This is because of several reasons.
First of all, every university has strong desire to gain more students. To achieve this, each university is trying to compete with one another by using different strategies. For instance, they improve the environment of the classroom as we as the campus. More classrooms are equipped with air-conditioners, computers, and overhead projectors, which enable teaching and learning process to go smoothly. The campus is wide and spacious for parking.
Moreover, the internet is free for the students to do research at any time they want. What is more, some private universities have built their own libraries, which are equipped with up-to-date facilities, For example, air-conditioners, computers with the internet, comfortable furniture, and in which a variety of books are displayed. They not revise the curriculum according t0 the real needs in our country.
This can really satisfy the needs of the students, and it can also guarantee that after graduating, students will be able to get a job. In addition to this, some university reduces the school fees so that the people with average living standard can afford to study. They also offer scholarship for the best students.
Finally, with a sharp rise in number of students graduating from high schools, a graduate increase of family finance, and general belief that private universities are better than public ones, parents usually chooses a suitable private university, which they believe can highly educate their children, for their offspring.
In brief, with the real effort of the private universities, and a rapid rise in population and living standard of Cambodia, private universities receive a great number of students every year.
